Terms of use

About these terms

These terms of use govern your access to and use of mahoganychocolate.com (the "site"), operated by Mahogany Chocolate Ltd. of Punta Gorda, Belize, together with its affiliate Mahogany Chocolate S.A. in Bajo Boquete, Panama. By using this site, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

This site is informational: it describes our chocolate and cacao products, our farms and processes, and how to get in touch about buying wholesale or visiting our facilities. It is not an online store — there is nowhere on this site to purchase anything, and no order, payment, or delivery process to agree to.

Acceptable use

You agree to use this site only for lawful purposes. In particular, you agree not to:

• attempt to gain unauthorized access to the site, its underlying systems, or any account or data connected to it;
• interfere with the site's normal operation, including through automated scraping at a volume that degrades the site for other visitors;
• submit false, misleading, or malicious information through any form on the site, including the contact and wholesale enquiry forms;
• use the site to transmit anything unlawful, harmful, or infringing on the rights of others.

We may suspend or restrict access to the site, without notice, for anyone we reasonably believe is in breach of these terms.

Intellectual property

Everything on this site — text, photography, illustrations, logos, the Mahogany Chocolate name and brand marks, and the site's design — belongs to Mahogany Chocolate Ltd. and Mahogany Chocolate S.A., or is used with the permission of the rights holder. You may view and share pages of this site for personal, non-commercial purposes, but you may not reproduce, copy, redistribute, or use our content, imagery, or branding for commercial purposes without our prior written consent.

Nothing on this site should be read as granting you a license to use our trademarks or trade dress in connection with your own products or services.

Disclaimer and limitation of liability

We do our best to keep the information on this site accurate and current, including farm figures, process descriptions, and contact details. However, the site and its content are provided "as is," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We don't guarantee that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Mahogany Chocolate Ltd. and Mahogany Chocolate S.A. will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, this site. Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

Governing law and changes

These terms are governed by the laws of Belize, and any dispute arising from your use of this site will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Belize.

We may update these terms from time to time, for example to reflect changes to the site or how it operates. The version published here is always the current one, and continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised terms. Last updated: [EFFECTIVE DATE].
